User Feedback
Pros
- Long-time users (some for 10+ years) consistently report the solunar predictions line up with real deer movement and fishing success
- Trail-camera users note a clear correlation: high percentage days show far more animal activity than low ones
- Free tier already includes weather, tides, sunrise/sunset and moon phase data, not just a locked demo
- Responsive developer support — payment/subscription issues reported on Google Play were resolved quickly by the team
- Works for both hunting and fishing, with some users noting it feels even more reliable for hunting
Cons
- Several reviewers caution it's only one input among many and shouldn't be treated as a guaranteed predictor
- Major/minor period text is displayed in small, low-contrast font that's hard to read despite being the key info
- Some users hit bugs after app updates or device transfers, such as the default location resetting incorrectly
- Effectiveness reportedly varies by region — one angler found the pattern felt reversed on Lake Superior compared to inland lakes
- No catch logging, personal photo journal, or social features — purely a forecasting tool
